## Resource

Todd Sarner Todd Sarner is a licensed psychotherapist, parent coach, and founder of Transformative Parenting. Since 2004, he has helped thousands of parents create calmer homes, stronger relationships, and more cooperation with their children without relying on punishments, scripts, or constant power struggles. Todd’s work is grounded in attachment science, developmental psychology, and neuroscience. He is a former faculty member of the Neufeld Institute and was mentored within Dr. Gordon Neufeld’s developmental, attachment-based framework. His approach helps parents look beneath behavior to understand what is actually driving their child’s struggles, while also helping parents build the emotional steadiness and leadership needed to create real change. He specializes in helping thoughtful, high-achieving parents who often feel overwhelmed, discouraged, or stuck between harsh discipline and overly permissive parenting. Through his Transformative Parenting Process, Todd teaches families how to strengthen attachment, improve regulation, create a healthier home environment, and respond to behavior in ways that are both effective and relationship-based. Todd is also the author of The Calm & Connected Parent, which offers an attachment-first blueprint for raising resilient children in a world shaped by screens, stress, and AI.
